I swear i'm losing it, I miss chuncks of the day and I dont know what ive been doing it really confuses me. Could this be down to my flashbacks or have I just lost it altogether ?
 
I lose chunks of time too. Sometimes I do things and don't remember, even when others tell me about them. I think it's dissociation.
 
It can be scary. It's pretty bad when you have sex with your husband 4 times yet only remember doing it once. It makes me worry....what else do I do? What kind of things do I say or do that could cause major problems?

I'm not sure it's dissociation, that's just what I'm assuming. Have you discussed it with your T.?
 
I currently not seeing my T, but I am back on the waiting list. I guess im gonna have to log things down and talk to her when I go back into therapy.
I get what you mean, I worry about what I do and say when im in these states.
 
I lost some more time today, and it left me feeling dazed and confused. I was also embarrassed about it because it made me look/sound ditzy in front of some other people when they were talking about where we had just went and I had no clue whatsoever.

Has it happened to you anymore lilstar? It's really pretty wild, isn't it?
 
Ayesha, losing time and not remembering anything..

I was with some people today. We went shopping and while in the store, we talked about going to another store. I walked out of the store and I thought we drove straight to one of their houses and went in. While inside, I asked them when we were going to that other store. I was told that we had just left that store, that we had already gone there. I don't remember it at all. Not at all. Pretty scary.

They looked at me as if I was crazy. I felt like I was. How could I go somewhere and not remember like that?
 
I was talking about something like that with my T last session. But he was saying its a symptom of DID or bipolar? I can't remember which one.

I get that too, but not quite like that. I remember, for example, that I went to therapy, but I forget things we talked about.
 
Hi Lilstar,

I get like that sometimes too, mostly when I'm really stressed out. When it happens, it's shocking. I have no idea how I could have lost that time. My therapist said it's dissociative stuff. It's a really scary, shaky experience to go through though. For me it feels like the opposite of deja vu.
